Those comet photos are beautiful.

Comets if I remember right are made of rocks and 'stuff' frozen together in ice.... ?

Here is a diagram showing where the Oort cloud is:

Here is another diagram showing the Kuiper belt also: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/03/Kuiper_oort.jpg

I don't see any indication of the source of Comet McNaught.

Not everything in deep space is natural, just a few items are man-made....

Passing Pluto. In 1983, Pioneer 10 became the first human-made object to pass the orbit of Pluto, the most distant planet from the Sun.


Questions: After its launch, how long did Pioneer 10 take to get further out than Mars?

In the absence of a real EverReady Bunny, how did NASA decide to power Pioneer 10?

The only problem with this is that Pluto is not considered a planet.

That's the trouble with astronomy - you can't rely on things staying the same from one day to the next :-)
